After a close 1-1 draw in regulation time, India finished their Hobart segment of the FIH Men’s Pro League 2025-26 on a positive note with a 3-1 shootout victory against Australia, earning the bonus point. Shilanand Lakra (51') scored for India, while Captain Jeremy Hayward (49') put Australia on the scoreboard. During the shootout, Shilanand Lakra, Maninder Singh, and Vishnukant Singh successfully converted their attempts, and young goalkeeper Mohith Honnenahalli Shashikumar made vital saves for India.
The match started with a very close contest in the first quarter. Australia held the majority of possession, but India stayed resilient with strong defense and effective counterattacks. India's goalkeeper, Mohith Honnenahalli Shashikumar, made key saves early to keep his team in the game. India earned their first penalty corner in the 11th minute, but Amandeep Lakra's dragflick was blocked by the first rusher. Soon after, India created another significant opportunity from the left side, but Abhishek's shot towards the goal narrowly missed.
